Who recommends it in their own words

All comments 6

“some nuts even willingly install stuff like this: https://atlas.ripe.net/”

“These go slow and time out a lot.”

“use RIPE Atlas for some measurements”

“you can do it yourself without even needing an ASN using RIPE RIS.”

We are actually a sponsor of RIPE Atlas and have a bunch of credits. But I am not sure if we use them extensively. I think, as we own and operate the ProbeNet, much of the data collection efforts can be done through that in a scalable manner.
